Benny Hillre ott bukkantunk, ahol nem is vártuk - íme az elmúlt évtizedek karácsonyainak legnagyobb slágerei
A Metro összeszedte az elmúlt évtizedek összes olyan slágerét, amely karácsonykor vezette a brit slágerlistát. A listán természetesen szép számmal vannak Beatles-dalok, de az igazán nagyok közül a Queen, a Boney M, a Pet Shop Boys, Cliff Richards és Micahel Jackson is képviselteti magát, és talán a legmeglepőbb név Benny Hillé, aki 1971-ben Ernie című nótájával négy héten át vezette a brit listát.
